After months of renovations that include the electrical system, refurbishing of the ceiling and wall fixtures, the Spanish Governor’s Palace, 105 Military Plaza, is open again to visitors.

The work was completed in early April. Yesterday, city leaders gathered to celebrate the reopening of the historic site. According to a press release, the city came under its $775,000 budget. The money saved will go back towards the site’s restoration  upgrades such as plaster restoration, lime washing the remaining interior walls and some of the exterior walls.

The city’s downtown operations department is not sure when the overall project will be completed, but the entire site is now open to the public. They anticipate final construction will be completed before the end of the year.
